Associated Press Dispatches the to Herald
SAN Francisco, October 16.-It has
transpired that another prominent
man under indictment has left the
city and is now resting in parts un-
known. This missing parsonage is
John A. Benson the head center of the
land survey ring, whose doings have
been under investigation by the
United States Grand Jury for the past
eight months. He was indicted last
spring on charges OF perjury and con-
spiracy in connection with these
frauds and escaped trial through the
loose manner in which the indict-
ments were drawn. A demurrer to
the indictments was sustained and
the cases were referred to the new
Grand Jury for further investigation.
DATE OF DEPARTURE. 80 80,
Benson left here August 23d osten-
sibly on business trip, promising A.
A. Glover, M. F. Riley and others of
his associates to return in two weeks.
About a month ago he turned up in
Chicago and is now said to be in
Canada.
THE NEVADA BANK MULCTED.
A statement is made here tonight
on the authority of an official who has
made this subject special study,
that Benson is short in his accounts
several thousand dollars. 1t is to this
effect the Nevada Bank holds power
of attorney from Benson to collect
S37 900 from the government in pay
ment for land surveys. Yesterday
the officials OF the Nevada Bank were
privately notified that former power
of attorney to collect that sum had
been made by Benson, and on the
strength tn ereof much of it had been
collected.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. October 16.-The
President and Mrs. Cleveland passed
a very quiet day, going out in the
morning for o stroll over the great
deer park and famous Bellemead
breeding farm. No incident worthy
OF mention occurred, it being intended
that the day should be one OF absolute
rest and quiet.
VISIT TO POLK'S.
After lunch the President and
Mrs. Cleveland escorted by General
Jackson, drove into Nashville and
paid their respects to Mrs. Polk. The
affair was made as informal as possi-
BILE, it being designed merely as an
interchange of courtesies between the
lady of the white house of forty years
ago and the lady of to-day.
NUMEROUS WITNESSES.
The Polk mansion was surrounding
by a great throng of people and the
visitors were received at the Church
street entrance, Governor Taylor
offering his arm to the President and
Mrs. Cleveland taking that OF Mr..
George w. Fall. Governor Taylor
made the presentation of the Presi-
dent to Mrs. Polk. The latter ex-
tended her hand and said:
"Mr. President, ] am indeed de-
lighted to meet you"
"And to meet you, Mrs. Polk"
replied the President. 81 have looked
forward to this visit with the most
pleasant anticipation"
Mrs. Cleveland was presented, and
the two ladies conversed cordially for
u few minutes. The other gentlemen
were then presented to the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Cleveland, after
which the conversation became gen.
eral, the President devoting himself
almost constantly during the brief
of his stay to Mrs. Polk.
His conversation turned principally to
the White House and Washington.
The lady was an interesting questioner
and the President willing informant.
Mrs. Cleveland was an object of
marked attention from all gentlemen
present. Mrs. Polk presented Mrs.
Cleveland with q bouquet of Mare
chal Mel roses, in the name of her
grand niece.
A GOOD GLASS OF WINE.
She then invited the party to re
freshments at which each guest was
served with a glass of sherry seventy
five years old. The guests after visit
ing the tomb OF President Polk re-
turned to Bellemeade. Mrs. Villas is
quite exhausted by the fatigue and
excitement of the journey from Madi-
son and has been confined to her
room nearly all day. 1t is reported
tonight as doubtful whether she will
be able to proceed tomorrow.

LONDON, October l6.-Messrs. Glad
stone and Morley have contributed
articles for the Homo (Ruie Hand Book,
which will be issued on Monday pre-
paratory to the Liberal Federation
meeting in Nottingham. Mr.. Glad
stones article is entitled, "Les-
sons of Irish History" He traces the
history Of Ireland for seven hundred
years and deals with the necessity
during the present crisis of becoming
acquainted with the true state of the
account between the islands of the
United Kingdom.
Earl Spencer in preface to the
work says: "We do not know how
Parliament can safely pass large
land purchase scheme without estab-
fishing some strong Irish government
in Dublin to act between the Imperial
government and the tenants" He
urges that home rule possesses a
vitality that will survive the land
question.

EXCITING ENTERTAINMENT.
The Trapeze Breaks and Causes
n Fire.

MONTEREY October 16.-Last nights
entertainment in the Laporte Hal
found a good audience, which was
doing well until an actor attempted to
perform on the trapeze. The scaffold-
ing was not we'll secured and in conse-
quence when the actor began to do
heavy work the whole thing came
down upon the audience, striking a
large chandelier, which in turn caused
a large blaze to rise in the midst of
the excited crowd. Men, women and
children made a rush for the door and
for time it seemed as though there
would be a panic. Two lamps of the
chandelier exploded and when they
struck the floor sent flames in every
direction. AS there was nothing
available to put out the fire, young
men set the example of fighting it by
using their long tailed coats. In a
few minutes the fire was wasextinguished.
No one was seriously hurt although
women tainted ana several other per-
sons received bruises.

Senator Farwell,s Texas Land.


Senator Charles V. Farwell of
Illinois, and his partners, his broth er
and Abner Taylor, of Chicago, W i'll
make from $15 100000 to $20,OOO,O00
in their Tex as land speculation. 1t
is said that the State of Texas has
given to the Farwell Company 81
100000 acres of the land in Texas.
The land to-day is worth $5 an acre,
and the State buildings did not cost
more than 81 100000. The land is
all fenced in. Seventy-five thousand
cattle are now on it, and more are to
follow. 1t comprises enough territory
for principality. The Farwell Com
pany have their headquarters in Lon
don. English capitalists own about
one-quarter of the stock. This great
and successful venture was brought to
the Farwell's by an impecunious and
visionary man, who obtained the con-
tracts which he sold to the Farwell
Company. The story goes that the
man happened to be in Austin, and
hearing that the State was offering
the land to any one who would
put up state buildings he calmly
walked up and took the contract,
when he had barely enough
money in his pocket to pay his fare to
Chicago. The same men who gave
away such block of land rather than
raise the money necessary by taxa
ton of course never dreamed Of ques-
tioning the contractors financial abil-
ity. He had some trouble in convinc-
ing the Farwells of the value of the
land, owing to their distrust of the
visionary contractors judgment, but
investigation showed the value, and
so the contract was purchased for o
few thousand dollars, and property
was obtained which will net its own
ers many millions.-[Baltimore Amer

WaIking.Sticks for women.

A fashion introduced at foreign
watering places this year has originat-
ed the carrying by women of very tall
and much ornamented walking-sticks.
The custom threatens to make its APP
pearance in this country, though it is
safe to say, that with our present style
of dress and methods of living, these
canes will hardly become popular.
They may, indeed, be said mere
ly to represent a fresh way
of spending money and exhibiting
extravaganza. happened to see one
OF these sticks a few days ago. 1t had
been brought to New York by fash
ionable woman who had been spend
ing the summer at Trouville. l be-
lieve she used the cane religiously on
the other side, but here it occupies a
prominent corner in the drawing-room
and is regarded more as a-curiosity
than anything else. 1t is made Of
finest satin wood and is twice the
length of the ordindry walking-stick.
The handle is thick and round, topped
with gold and surrounded by
tiny turquois and diamonds. On
touching spring this god tip flies
back, revealing within small bottle,
presumably for cologne. 1 say pre-
sumably, because one would natur-
ally imagine the glass receptacle to be
destined for triple extracts and moth
ing else. Inquiry, however, revealed
the startling fact that anything liquid
with the exception of perfume may be
carried in the bottle. Vinaigrettes, l
was gravely informed, belong to
past generation. No woman of ele-
gance ever carries one. She. rubs a
few drops of fragrant extract in her
ears and puts any number of silken
satchets in the drawers of her toilet
table, but as to being seen with vul-
gar smelling bottle, such thing is
out of the question. What purpose
then does the bottle in the jewelled
case serve? Why, in nine cases out
of ten it is filled with chloral, brandy,
liquor, or any other OF the stim ulating
drugs so much affected by the modern
woman of fashion.-[Sav News.

They Successfully Combat a
Gang of DespcradOes.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, October TO-
Fully three hundred citizens started
out yesterday morning after the rob-
bers who murdered Mr.. Ryan, near
Walton, Roam county, last Thursday
night. The officers and citizens ran
into the robbers, thirteen in number,
last night at George Duff's residence
8 miles from Sissonville, this county,
and were warned to keep off by the
robbers, who had taken refuge in a
house fitted with port holes and made
with other arrangements for protection.
The murlerers were fired upon and
George Duff, Jr. was killed. Jake
Coon was captured and lynched. Five
of the officers and citizens in the
battle were wounded. The informa.
ton received is very meagre. There
are about twenty robbers in the gang
who have been carrying ON at a high
rate. Mr.. Duff, George Drake and
Frank Shambling are prisoners and
await the pleasure of the Vigilance
Committee for their disposal. 1t is
believed that full confession will be
made and the whole gang lynched.

These ample wraps are made like the

Vatican fullness of the back, with
also hood and dolman sleeves.

FRENCA DECORATIONS.
Canadians Charged With Hav.
ing Purchased Them.

MONTREAL, October 16.-Quite a
dutter of excitement exists in French
Canadian society here over the deco
rations scandal in France. This is
owing to the fact that many French
Canadian statesmen, politicians, law
yers and others wear French decora-
tions. Senator SENEGAL, who was
buried yesterday, wore the ribbon of
the Legion of Honor, which it was
openly charged had been purchased
by him from friends of General Bou-
langer. A Parisian named Tranchant
some months ago petitioned the
French government to inquire into
the matter and it is said here that this
had something to do with the expose.
Numerous other French-C Canadians
are said to have purchased the deco
rations they wear.

A Grave Dispute Among TIM

CHICAGO, October 16.-It is alleged
that the action of the General Assem-
bly, OF the Knights OF Labor at Mime
apolis in sustaining Powderly in his
action declaring the great Stock-yards
strike off, and ordering the strikers to
return to work, has given consider
able impetus to the movement in
District Assembly No. 81 (Which in
cludes inits membership all the Stock
yard employes) to go out of the
Knights of Labor altogether and reor-
ganize as Central Union Labor Or
ganization.

express an opinion that the Barrel
makers would secede from the
Knights of Labor in the very near fl'
ture and become an independent or
